The Story
Extreme heat chilli pepper from Terre Exotique, rating 10/10 on the Scoville scale (explosive). This hybrid pepper combines Naga Jolokia and Trinidad chilli varieties, creating one of the world's most pungent peppers that was voted "hottest chilli pepper in the world" by Guinness World Records in 2011. Harvested in Northern India's Assam region, these small but incredibly powerful peppers deliver fruity flavour alongside extreme heat.
Use sparingly and with extreme caution — this pepper is for infusing, not eating directly. Add whole to sauces, marinades, or cooking oils to extract the fruity flavour and volcanic heat. Perfect for enhancing chilli con carne, white fish sauces, pizzas, marinated meats, risottos, or gazpacho where serious heat is desired.
Always wear gloves when handling. Wash hands thoroughly after use. Keep away from eyes and sensitive areas. Use in minute quantities only.
